Delicado em seu retrato da infância, peca apenas pela conclusão frouxa, quando o próprio filme torna-se infantil.

Harmoniously blends elements of a coming-of-age story, a crime drama and a mystery together in something of astonishing power and scope.

This is a visually stunning film, an intelligently consummated marriage of genres resulting in a movie that is, if not unique, at least very special.

Visually striking and exceptionally performed by old and young alike, I'm Not Scared plucks the nerves.
